Hi,
Seeing the boot9strap mod is pretty straightforward without the need to downgrade, upgrade aso. I am tempted.
Still on 4.5 with gateway so mset is there.
Now.... If i do the sighax/boot9strap thing.. Is there still a way to use my gateway flashcard or is that door closed??

You can't boot Gateway as a Luma payload I don't think (they only released something for version 1 of a9lh). And I don't know what the status is of Gateway with an 11.3 or 11.4 emuNAND (I wouldn't do it unless you don't mind something bad happening to your console, it's very likely).

If you want to keep using Gateway, you'll have to install a9lh using an older version of the guide (use WayBackMachine to go back a week or so) and use Gateway's a9lh bin file as a Luma payload to launch Gateway mode. To update your emuNAND, use a Yoshi's Wooly Word rom and hold Up in the Gateway menu when launching Gateway mode to disable rom update blocking.

Note that if you launch Gateway in sysNAND mode, your a9lh is erased, and you'll need a hardmod or second CFW console to then get boot9strap (and no longer be able to use Gateway). Gateway might come out with a firm file that lets you use Gateway with boot9strap. But don't count on it, they are very slow. They never even produced an a9lh bin file for a9lh v2+ or updated their launcher.dat to not have a9lh removed in 11.3 and 11.4.

If you want to use Gateway on boot9strap, make sure you download v2gw, then convert the file from .bin to .firm using FIRMtool. Also, make sure Emunand is on 11.2 or lower, since 11.3 and higher prevents Gateway CFW from loading.

Don't do this, its completely pointless atm. Just continue to use mset and wait for gateway update if you still want to use it.
